Tall trees

Penny Black’s Tall Trees is one of my favorite dies that I haven’t had a chance to use until today. Yay!  This week’s color throwdown was a bit of a challenge for me, but I like how my card turnedout and it was fun to make.  What is also great is I can use this card for three challenges.   Simon Says Monday Challenge. Simon Says Wednesday Challenge and Color Throwdown #520 Challenge.blob:https://www.blogger.com/fd188449-2d46-4efc-9372-be00f7be2c20

Christmas card making

Every year I procrastinate making Christmas cards and I send out about 100 or more.  Each year, I tell myself I’m going to start early, and yet again, I’m behind the 8-ball.  So after seeing the colors for this week’s Color Throwdown #519, I knew whatever card I designed would be one to use for this year’s stash.

I really love how it turned out too.  I smooshed the background and added snowflakes and heat embossed snowflakes in silver, too.  This will be an easy card to mass produce!

Supplies used:
TH watercolor paper and Weathered Wood Ink
Gina K’s Ocean Mist and Sea Glass Inks and layering White CS
SSS Retro Deer Die
PTI’s In The Meadow Silhouttes dies (the birds)
PB’s Into the Woods die
PTI’s In the Meadow Stamp set (snowflakes)
MFT’s Simply Snowflakes
SU’s Silver EP
Duvo drops in Autumn Red
Embroidering Floss

Fall and Winter

These two cards are for November Twofer Challenge.  This will be my first time since Darnell started the challenge that I
could even think about entering. I hope my entry qualifies.  Darnell please let me know if it doesn’t.

One of the cards is for the Color Throwdown 518 using blue yellow and brown.

List of stamps...MFT’s BB Harvest Mouse and I don’t remember which set the Happy Birthday came from.  SSS Naughty & Nice Elves and MFT’s Hand Lettered Holiday. The wreath die is Wreaths Confetti Cuts from Reverse Confetti.

A Fall Birthday

Hi everyone, It’s nice to be back stamping again. I’ve had this stamp for at least a year and finally had a chance to ink it up. I bought it at a local craft show.   I think this stamp is an obvious “watercolor me” stamp.  It’s called Shady Path by the Artful Stamper by SOI.  I took a bit of liberty and made the path a creek.   I used my SU stamps for watercoloring: Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Crumb Cake and Pool Party.  The Happy birthday stamp is from HA CL661.  I’m entering this card into the Color Throwdown #517 and Simon Says Stamp Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge “Anything Goes.  As always thank you for stopping by.  I love it when you do.
